Wanda,

Is your NT account a domain administrator? i.e. a member of the Domain
Admins?

The following info from 'Installing the Clients' may prove useful...

By default ADSM client services are installed to run under the local system
account. Since the service uses logon properties such as persistent drive
mappings, and local search path and environment variables of the account
which it logs on, it may be desirable to have the services logged on by a
domain account.
Also, since local accounts do not have domain credentials, domain resources,
such as network drives, can only be accessed by services configured to run
under a domain authorized account using dsmcutil or the Service Control
Panel Application. Any non-system account (local or domain) must possess the
following rights:
*       Backup files
*       Restore files
*       Manage auditing
*       Security Logs
Without these rights, users can only backup files they own, but not files
owned by other users or the system registry.
These are local user rights and must be set using the local User Manager
application, and domain accounts may not automatically be enabled for them.
Domain accounts may be granted local rights by the local User Manager.
The account must also have the following permissions to the
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, HKEY_KEY_USERS, and HKEY_CURRENT_USER registry hives:
*       Query Value
*       Set Value
*       Create Subkey
*       Enumerate Subkeys
The local system account and local Administrator group possess these
permissions by default. Other accounts/groups (including domain
Administrators) must be granted these permissions either explicitly via the
registry editor security dialog (regedt32), or implicitly by adding the
account/group to the local Administrators group via the local User Manager
(recommended).

        No.  This message is from the GUI interface.
